Lucia Festival in Cincinnati

Santa Lucia's Day is the beginning of the Christmas season in Scandinavia, a celebration of light.

There is a big tradition for celebrating Lucia Day in the Nordic countries and at Scandinavian Society of Cincinnati we carry on this tradition. We gather our members for the Lucia Fest in the middle of December. Children and grandchildren of members perform the traditional Lucia Procession while singing the Lucia song. Members get creative and bring an abundance of Scandinavian side dishes and desserts to supplement the main dinner items.

Doors open at 4 p.m., event starts at 5 p.m.

Adults and children ages 12 and up: $10.00,

Children under 12: $5.00
